​I am a publisher through Heritage Makers and I am promoting The My Life My Story program with seniors. We are committed in helping the seniors in your community to celebrate and preserve their life stories.How this works and to ensure that each person in the program completes their life story in 6-8 weeks or sooner, so they can celebrate their memories with their family, children, grandchildren and friends --Items needed:

My Life My Story Packet (included with the cost)

Pen

Computer/Laptop

Internet access

Photos/Memorabilia & Scanner (Or Smart Phone works too)

Buddy

​The senior with the help of the buddy will answer 2-3 questions a day or 10-20 questions a week. Answering the questions can be done on their own or they can use the weekly class time to answer the questions.The buddy will gather photos/memorabilia that relate to the questions.The buddy will scan the photos/memorabilia at least 300 dpi (jpeg format) and upload them to the online publishing account that I will provide the senior. At the end of the class each senior will receive a personal hard bound storybook that will be presented to them at the publishing party.This sets The Nursing Home apart from other communities and provides valid, self-esteem boosting, valuable activity for your monthly calendar. It helps with admissions - families will know their loved ones’ stories will never be forgotten, creates opportunity for volunteers in your community to get involved, strengthen rapport among staff and seniors by getting to know the residents by reading their books and creates a feeling of unity and friendship among the residents, staff, volunteers and management. Our mission is to help seniors and others everywhere write and publish their life stories so they will never be forgotten.
